Getting ready to sell

Home presentation

When deciding on selling your property it’s important to ensure that you are giving your property the best chance to reach its full potential. It’s important to give your property a once over before putting it on the market. This includes making sure windows are clean on the inside. Many people overlook this and it’s surprising what a difference it makes to the amount of light coming in.

It’s important that the prospective buyer is able to imagine this as their new home and can see their belongings in the property so make sure that everything is neat and tidy. Less clutter will help make your property look bigger.

If you have an idea of how your house could look but don’t have the furniture to make it happen, you may consider hiring some furniture or artwork to create the look that you are after. If you have any lights that don't work or any leaks make sure these are fixed before an inspection as this may leave a negative thought on the potential buyers.

A fresh coat of paint is an excellent idea as it will certainly brighten up the property and make it more appealing. If you have any pets ensure that you have cleaned up after them and take them out of the property when people are viewing your home.
